Market opens: Sensex is up 60.88 points or 0.16 percent at 39105.23, and the Nifty gained 18.10 points or 0.16 percent at 11539.90. Mahindra & Mahindra, Bajaj Auto, Titan Company, Tata Motors and Bharti Airtel are the top gainers while Reliance Industries, Aurobindo Pharma and IndusInd Bank are the most active stocks.
Among the sectors, auto along with the pharma index added half a percent each while the midcap and small indices are also trading in the green.
ICICIdirect on market outlook: Nifty consolidated with 11,500 acting as a midpoint. Buying in banking and pharma led the index to end positive with a decent gain of 80 points. On the option front, additions were seen in ATM Call and Put strike. We feel a consolidation move will take place before crossing the 11,600 hurdle. Nifty futures ended at a premium of 5 points while IV fell by 3%. The major Put base is at 11400 strike with almost 25 lakh shares while the major Call base is at the 11700 strike with almost 26 lakh shares.

Bank Nifty is well placed to test its Call base of 23,000 with immediate support level of 22,000.
